Few hands

Took a few days off from the grind, but back at it today. I've been coolered a few times, and I've been pushing the action a bit much against call stations. So all in all I've dug myself a deep hole every day and climb back to about break even.

I played this pretty bad. I had a good read that I was probably ahead with my pair. Once the jack hit and he calls, I'm ready to give up on the hand. I however hit my set and get way too overzealous to get money in there. I didn't put him on a gutshot draw and it hurt me.

this was one of the silliest hands I've ever been involved in. I guess I should have fired on the river too? Was he really calling down with a gutshot and 2 overs?

Tried to reraise the flop and steal the pot, or hit a draw. I felt like he was weak since he didn't reraise my reraise, so I led out on the turn. I figured he had atleast a pair and wasn't gonna go away so checked the river. High card wins?

Blaaaaaah
